I have hosted my website with linode using putty. I have also downloaded the phpmyadmin for managing database.Now i am trying to configure phpmyadmin. But command is not working.when i execute
"cd /srv/www/example.org/public_html"
command this giving me error
"-bash: cd: /srv/www/monjardeal.com/public_html: No such file or directory".
when i viewed srv folder under root this folder is empty. I followed the instructions of the following link for installing phpmyadmin.
https://www.linode.com/docs/databases/m ... n-7-wheezy

Please help me configuring and setting up the phpmyadmin for my site.

I used PHPMyAdmin for sometime until I realized that a web based app with full access to the database is probably not a good security practice. I started using MySQL Workbench over SSH and made sure the external MySQL port was closed for added security.

Unfortunately, that's all the help I can offer. I was using Apache and PHPMyAdmin and it just worked on Ubuntu when I installed the packages.

This is my advice. When I used PHPmyAdmin, I had an IP whitelist in .htaccess on the directory the symlink was in. It can be tedious, but learning SQL and using the MySQL shell is best.

sudo nano /srv/www/monjardeal.com/public_html/phpmyadmin/.htaccess

order allow,deny
Allow from All

is the content of my .htaccess file. but still phpmyadmin is not opening in browser window. When i open 212.71.255.110/phpmyadmin link this redirects me to https://212.71.255.110/phpmyadmin/?coll ... ral_ci&SID but nothing shows in broswer window.

I think it should be deny, then allow. It should be deny from all, then allow from IP addresses. The webserver should not allow everyone into PHPmyAdmin.

Try adding /index.php. Looks like you may not have Indexes set up in your web server:

http://212.71.255.110/phpmyadmin/index.php

You should remove the actual file paths from your posts. It's not an actual vulnerability, but it can lead to exploitation of vulnerabilities.
